Mocha Delight image

This recipe may look complicated but is actually very simple. This recipe was a tested product of my business pitch in August of 2018 and a $250 award winner. Very delicious and moist cake, also light and fluffy in texture.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I think I would use less sugar next time. The cake was also a bit dry, so I would add more butter or oil to the batter next time.
